A catcher in his playing days, Sheriff Robinson was a Mets' coach for several years in the '60s, and then served with them for another year after Gil Hodges' untimely death. As near as I can tell, there was never a Sheriff Robinson baseball card produced. The picture above is from the 1972 New York Mets Yearbook. The picture below is of a 1972 Topps card that doesn't actually exist; it was produced by the genius who ran the now inactive blog/website "Mets Baseball Cards Like They Ought to Be!" (https://metsfantasycards.blogspot.com/). That link still works at the moment, but it may not for much longer. Check it out if you have the chance. That's Sheriff in the second box on the bottom left.

This is a list of the cards of this player that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity prior to my divestiture.  The cards listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final deal.  Items listed in green I kept out of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and den.  At the bottom and listed in orange text are cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used areas.  If an orange card is struck through, it has also departed the collection.  I’m still accepting donations, should you feel so moved.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
